Production
Allauddinum Albhutha Vilakkum, directed by I. V. Sasi, was based on the story of Aladdin from One Thousand and One Nights, and had Kamal Haasan playing the title character, named Alavuddin here. Rajinikanth was cast as Kamaruddin, a character not present in the original story but created for the film.[9] It was his first film in the Malayalam language and the fantasy genre. The film was simultaneously shot in Tamil as Allaudinaum Arputha Vilakkum,[4][10] marking Sasi's directorial debut in Tamil cinema.[11] This version was the second Tamil adaptation of the story of Aladdin, after a 1957 film with the same name.[12] Ramachandra Babu worked as cinematographer, and the film was made in CinemaScope.[13] According to him, Rajinikanth would often turn violent on the sets: "[He] was always under the influence of liquor and could turn violent any moment. Even Kamal was wary of doing fight sequences with [him]".[14]
Soundtrack
The soundtrack of both versions was composed by G. Devarajan. The lyrics for the Malayalam version were written by Yusufali Kechery,[15][16] while the lyrics for the Tamil version were written by Vaali and Kannadasan.[17]
